Reviews

See what students are saying about the previous edition... Save it for your medical library. Great textbook. Made a class I thought was going to be dreadfully boring into one of my favorite classes. You'll learn a lot more about your health and the health of your family. Definitely hanging on to this one. - K., Online Reviewer; Great Content. This was required for my class, but I'm really enjoying the content. Great information on sign/symptoms, causes, etiology, treatment and prevention of so many diseases. - Emily, Online Reviewer; Five Stars. Great book for class. Clear concise wording. Straight to the point, easy to follow and read. - Joyce, Online Reviewer.
